We can hear young girls screaming as the news has broken that One Direction band member Louis Tomlinson is now a father.
People reported that the singer and Los Angeles-based stylist, Briana Jungwirth, welcomed a baby boy on Thursday.
We reported in July that Tomlinson was expecting his first child with Jungwirth, who he had been romantically involved with after a split with his longtime girlfriend, Eleanor Calder.
“Louis is happy and very excited about becoming a dad and he thinks Briana will be an amazing mother,” a friend said after the pregnancy was announced. “It was a surprise at first, but he and Briana are very, very close friends and this has brought them even closer.”
The two met through mutual friends and were spotted together in public for the first time last May at Snoop Dogg's album release party. However, it is unclear how long or if they are still seeing each other as the band member has been linked to actress Danielle Campbell recently.
Social media lit up on Friday when Tomlinson’s step father posted a tweet that fueled speculation that the baby had arrived when he wrote: "Is that the patter of tiny feet?"
Congrats to Louis and Jungwirth!
